Apologies for missing this - I did ask for this enormous patch to
contain only what it said on the tin (and I did read it to check!) but
this one got through.

This is fine, but please add a comment explaining the rather subtle use
of INVALID_MFN here so the next tidy-minded person doesn't "fix" it
again. :)

In fact would it be better to check the returned type == p2m_mmio_direct
instead?  That seems like it would fit better with the intention.   Or
do other callers use this to clean non-mmio entries too?

Cheers,

Tim.
